I think it may depend on how sick you are. I have had a pic line one time with a second antibiotic when I was extremely sick. But as of lately I just do 28 days of toby. Does the sensitivity test say it's sensitive to tobramyacin?
Hopefully just the toby would knock it back enough for your own immune system to take hold.
Good luck!
Shari

Hi Shari. I'm actually feeling good so this news was a shock. My doc has not said specifically what antibiotic he is thinking of using. He will have to let me know about any sensitivity test--if there is one. I don't think I've ever used Tobramycin before. I can let you know what he says. Thanks for your insight. Faye

Hi Shari. I had been feeling very well so this news was a shocker. I'm doing daily nebulizing with 3% Sod. Chloride and aerobika. My doc has not replied with specific antibiotic treatment yet. Just got his message late yesterday and I responded last night by portal message. He is good about getting back within a day so should hear something today.
